Open up Mac Mail and you should be presented with the screen below (If not, then click ‘File’ and ‘Add new account’) – just select ‘Add Other Mail Account…’ and click ‘Continue’
Fill in your details, then click ‘Create’:
Full Name: This should be the name you want your emails to appear to have been sent from
Email Address: Once you have setup your mailbox you put the full email address in here
Password: This is the password you used when the mailbox was created
You will see a message ‘Account must be manually configured’, just click ‘Next’ to carry on.
First you will need to complete the ‘Incoming Mail Server Info’ using the following information:
